More Clouds and More Humid Today, Isolated Showers Possible
BANGOR, Maine (WABI) - Low pressure at the surface... and in the upper levels of the atmosphere... located over Southern New England will slowly drift northward over the next 24-48 hours. This will bring us more clouds from south to north today along with the chance for some isolated showers. The brightest conditions will be around Millinocket and points northward and as a result these will be the warmest locales today too. The increase in clouds will make for a cooler day elsewhere especially as you get closer to the coast where we’ll have an onshore breeze too. Temperatures today will only be in the 60s to near 70° along the coast and low to mid-70s inland. Areas from Millinocket northward will see highs in the upper 70s to low 80s. Skies will be mostly cloudy tonight with patchy fog and isolated showers. Temperatures will drop to the upper 50s to mid-60s.

Ellsworth Bike Party looks to welcome cyclists
ELLSWORTH, Maine (WABI) - A handful of cyclists from the Ellsworth area meet every month to take in the city on two wheels. “I used to ride my bike a lot in England, but England was very flat, and everywhere it’s kind of close together. The towns are not far apart. So, when I moved to Maine, it was quite a shock that there’s big distances between places and it’s very hilly and I wasn’t really enjoying biking. I felt like there was a lot of traffic and there weren’t other people riding bikes and I really thought ‘Oh, it would be nice to make Ellsworth more bike friendly,’” explained Ellsworth Bike Party Organizer, Alice Slater.
